Familiars

Familiars are creatures that accompany you on your journeys through the Kingdom. They have various effects on gameplay, mostly related to combat.

To use them, you must first purchase a Familiar-Gro Terrarium from the Market in Seaside Town. The Terrarium can store one of each type of familiar, but you can only travel with one familiar at a time. Familiars gain experience as you fight monsters.

As they go up in level, they (usually) become more effective at doing whatever it is that they do.

Familiars have their own equipment, which you can find here.

There are currently 66 familiars in existence.
